I am so proud of being a Rocklander and I’m sure all of you are as well. The beauty of Rockland County is just breathtaking, so lets keep it that way, take a look at the information below to see how you can help, and…

Keep Rockland Beautiful, a local nonprofit organization, coordinates the Great American Cleanup in Rockland. Somebody in your area is organizing a cleanup, and he or she needs your help. Can you commit a few hours to work on helping clean a park or stream, or plant flowers? Can you invite friends or put up a poster? KRB supplies trash bags, tools, and treats for volunteers, plus any organizational support you need. Wondering where to go and who to talk with? Check out our map of cleanup sites from last year, or just give us a call and we’ll help you to connect you to your local cleanup crew or start your own. Reach Andy at 845-708-9159, email krbexdir@aol.com, or drop by the office at 10 Maple Ave, New City (Clarkstown Town Hall).

As a realtor in Rockland County NY I’ve seen my fair share of homeowners and renters who end up with lots of unwanted items that they need to get rid of fast. Of course you could always throw it out but why not give it away and keep it out of our landfills.

If the item is still in decent shape you could always give it away at an online recycling network such as www.freecycle.org. This website is kind of like craigslist except no buying or selling is allowed, the things have to be given or taken away for free. The local Rockland County freecycle site is at Freecycle.org in Rockland County.

This is a great way to clear up some space and do something great for the environment, so please check it out and make sure you read all the rules of participation.

See you next time 🙂
